How It Works

Studio Care & Important Information

Crucial Drying Warning: DO NOT place the Tube Maker tool directly into a dehydrator or onto a hot plate. High heat will warp and permanently damage the tool. Always remove the clay tube on the brass rod first, then place the rod/clay into your drying equipment.

Cleaning: Keep your tool in peak condition by washing it immediately after use with warm water and mild dish soap. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
